Realization in the dark

M Minakshi Devi
They say, life is luminous in a bright active day light.
But, when I close my eyes and cogitate twice,
I feel more flawed, more moralized as well more wise.

In a pitch black darkness of a calm night.
To me, a day's busy moments seem  to generate a disaster
Whilst they compete to render races in life faster and better.

I infallibly, so, wait keenly for onset of the night.
Whilst an uncanny calmness seems to arise in my sight.
As the Sun sinks and the brisk darkness explode,
Birds and children head back worn out for home,
All the turmoil and madness starts ceasing to bloat,
Then I feel, my composure is again going to get afloat.

In silence, I get back solace and wisdom in darkness of the night
Even if the Moon rises luminous making the night bright.
It's a dreamy phase of realization in the darkness,
That I can wind up my wounds into a coil of sleep
And lay relaxed to recharge my drained mind and might
In darkness of the calm and inactive night.
